More Than Mangoes: Island SPACE Festival Brings Caribbean Flavor to South Florida


South Florida's sweetest summer celebration is back. 


The Island SPACE Mango Festival returns on Sunday, June 21, transforming the Charles F. Dodge City Center in Pembroke Pines into an indoor Caribbean oasis filled with music, food, culture and, of course, mangoes.

This year's festival adds a special Father's Day twist with Daddy's Kingdom, an adults-only VIP experience designed to celebrate fathers and father figures with throne photos, treats, games and exclusive perks.

Mango enthusiasts can sample rare varieties through the Mango Sommelier Experience, explore the Mango Walk featuring dozens of tropical varieties and watch the excitement unfold during the Daddy Mango Eating Competition.

The event also features celebrity Caribbean chefs, live entertainment, steel pan music, dance showcases, artisan vendors and family-friendly activities.

If you're looking for a unique way to celebrate Father's Day weekend, this festival delivers island vibes, delicious flavors and memories for the whole family.

Ticket prices are $25 for adults in advance, $35 at the door, $10 for children and $50 each for the Passport to Daddy’s Kingdom and Mango Sommelier Experience, both of which include general admission.

Tickets are available through Ticketmaster, at Island SPACE Caribbean Museum and at the Charles F. Dodge City Center box office.
